Visual Programming tools that can be used for practical app development [closed]

Question

I've been interested in Visual Programming Languages (VPL) for a while. However I've hardly seen any environments that can be used for practical projects such as Windows apps or web services.

I've heard of the following:

• LabVIEW - electronics and instrumentation
• Microsoft VPL - robotics
• Game Maker - games
• Google App Inventor - Android apps
• Tersus - web apps

Are there any other VPL environments that generate executable programs and can be used for practical applications?

Answer 1

Probably a bit too late for this answer, but I'm interested in the same thing and for anyone else might read this and find it useful. Here is a new one just for creating windows applications, it's called Korduene, however beware it is alpha just now.

Answer 2

You may have a look at the WPF based TUM.CMS.VPLControl
